A hot topic. Active shooters and school shootings have exposed how powerless prayer is. Seemingly thoughts don't work either. attempting to reinstitute prayer in schools is just another method of "getting them while they're young". Prayer is personal and should be communal in church. What's next? Bringing back slavery?
The good news is the religious voting block has fractured under Trump. The even better news is that now even evangelicals ask " great, but whose prayers? No we don't want the wrong ones allowed" to this now so it won't have the desired outcome for him.
Well, hopefully. The religious can be pretty fucking irrational at times.
As long as there has been, and as long as there will be, math tests in schools, there always has been and always will be prayer in schools.
